CoreWeave launched Forge, a platform meant to speed up an ongoing agent improvement loop by letting teams share a common workflow for running, observing, curating, improving, and evaluating AI agents. The article says the platform measures success by speed of learning, tied to faster shipping and faster value delivery. It adds capabilities like Agent Lens, model checkpoints/configuration via Registry, RL Rollouts and model distillation, and makes its ARIA tool generally available, alongside a partner network of co-engineered integrations.
Google announced a unified “agent” in Gemini that can answer questions and carry out tasks on a user’s behalf through a single interface. It will start with businesses first, after citing that Gemini has over 1 billion monthly active users and that nearly 90% of Fortune 100 companies use Gemini Enterprise. Google says the agent can be given objectives (not just instructions) and connect to business tools like Workspace and other internal systems, with added controls such as model selection and cost-management options.
Liquid AI builds personal AI systems intended to run on users’ devices using device-level context rather than elastic cloud capacity. Its Liquid Context is optimized for Snapdragon processors. The company adds agent software and observability loops so onboard agents can retain, compress, and continuously improve their context and models over time, including in Mercedes-Benz cars.
Most AI SRE incident tools still require human involvement, because they can help troubleshoot but largely stop short of deciding on their own when an incident needs attention. The New Stack is hosting a live webinar on October 22 with Raaz Dwivedi about what it takes to move from invoked or background assistance to fully proactive, self-healing incident response agents. The change is that agents in the final phase choose when to act without waiting for an on-call request or scheduled triggers.
Cal AI co-founder Zach Yadegari launched Persona, a new personal AI agent startup, and secured $10M in funding to build a wearable-band assistant with cloud-based privacy controls. The round was led by Vine Ventures and delivered $10 million for Persona. Persona is moving into a free iMessage beta now, with the $179 wearable band expected in December and new app support coming alongside it.
Ben’s Bites reported a roundup of new AI agents, model releases, and tooling updates across companies including ChatGPT, Anthropic, Google, Grok, and various productivity apps. The most specific figure mentioned is that Claude Haiku 5.5 costs about 75% less to run than Haiku 4.5. As a result, more interfaces and image/chart/map-capable outputs are rolling out to users, while some services add usage credits or new integrations for building agent workflows in apps like Slack, Docs, and Cursor.
OpenCouncil launched a browser-based live voice room where users can put GPT, Gemini, Grok, or their own agents to answer and interact without talking over people.
NVIDIA researchers, with Princeton and the University of Maryland, released PivotOPD, an on-policy distillation training method for multi-turn LLM agents that teaches them to prevent and recover from early pivotal mistakes.
AVEVA’s chief technologist Arti Garg argues that industrial AI’s shift toward foundation, physical, and agentic models requires tighter safety- and oversight-focused governance as these systems can act in the physical world. Adoption in the industrial sector rose about 78% over the past two years, increasing pressure to control harder-to-predict behavior. Companies should connect more disparate industrial data for real-time support and deploy “human-augmented” automation with guardrails plus sustainability measurement methods.
